Like the rest of the [[New Testament]], III John is written in [[Koine Greek]], and was originally penned as a letter. In the Epistle, John only addresses himself as "the elder," since church leaders were called elders when he wrote III John. As in II John, he writes that he does not want to write all he wants to tell in a letter, which may explain the short length of III John.
